The Global Intelligence Files

On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

The problem with this analysis of what Obama would do in the way of foreign
policy is that it does not take into consideration Obama's background in
radicalism and attempts to use his facade as indicators of reality. If the
analysis is right, Obama is likely to end up as a more incompetent and
ineffective president than Jimmie Carter, if such a thing is possible. If
the analysis is wrong, Obama will destroy America in his radical attempt to
make change. I think that Stratfor in its attempt to remain as unbiased as
poossible is omittin g critical analtical components of this socialist. In
the words of Milton Friedman, "Fundamental differences in basic values can
seldom if ever be resolved at the ballot box; ultimately they can only be
decided, though not resolved, by conflict."
